Chimney & Chimney Connector
The chimney connector is a single walled pipe used to connect the stove to the chimney. The
chimney connector must be 7” in diameter, with a minimum thickness of 24 gauge black steel.
Aluminum and galvanized steel pipe is not acceptable for use with the the Sedore woodstove.
These materials cannot withstand the extreme temperatures of a wood fire and can give off toxic
fumes when heated.
Do not use the connector pipe as a chimney. Each chimney connector or stove pipe section must
be installed to the stove flue collar and to each other with the male (crimped) end toward the
stove. This prevents any amount of condensed or liquid creosote from running down the outside
of the pipe or the stove top. All joints, including the flue collar connection must be secured with
three sheet metal screws.
For the best performance, the chimney connector should be as short and direct as possible, with
no more than two 90°elbows. If you require a 90° turn, it is recommended that you use two 45°
elbows to improve air flow.
The maximum horizontal run is 36” (915mm) and a recommended total length of stove pipe
should not exceed 10 feet.
Always slope horizontal runs upward 1/4” (6,35mm) per foot toward the chimney.
No part of the chimney connector may pass through an attic or roof space, closet or other con-
cealed space, or through a floor or ceiling.
All sections of the chimney connectors must be accessible for cleaning.
Where passage through a wall or partition of combustible construction is desired, the installation
must conform with CAN/CSA-B365.
CAUTION: Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue servicing another appliance.
Chimneys
There are two types of chimneys suitable for the Sedore woodstove:
1. A code- approved masonry chimney with a flue liner.
2. A prefabricated chimney complying with the requirements for Type HT (2100°F) chimneys per
ULC S629.
The chimney size should not be less than the cross-sectional area of the flue collar, and not more
than three times greater than the cross-sectional area of the flue collar.
When selecting a chimney type and the location for the chimney in the house, keep this in mind: it
is the chimney that makes the stove work, not the stove that makes the chimney work. This is be-
cause a chimney actually creates a suction, called “draft”, which pulls air through the stove.
